Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also referred to as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and the older term venereal disease, are infections that are spread by sexual activity, especially vaginal intercourse, anal sex and oral sex.[1][5] STIs often do not initially cause symptoms,[1] which results in a risk of passing the infection on to others.[6][7] Symptoms and signs of STIs may include vaginal discharge, penile discharge, ulcers on or around the genitals, and pelvic pain.[1] Some STIs can cause infertility.[1]

Bacterial STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis.[1] Viral STIs include genital herpes, HIV/AIDS, and genital warts.[1] Parasitic STIs include trichomoniasis.[1] STI diagnostic tests are usually easily available in the developed world, but they are often unavailable in the developing world.[1]

Some vaccinations may also decrease the risk of certain infections including hepatitis B and some types of HPV.[2] Safe sex practices, such as use of condoms, having a smaller number of sexual partners, and being in a relationship in which each person only has sex with the other also decreases the risk of STIs.[1][2] Comprehensive sex education may also be useful.[8] Most STIs are treatable and curable; of the most common infections, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis are curable, while HIV/AIDS is not curable.[1]

In 2015, about 1.1 billion people had STIs other than HIV/AIDS.[3] About 500 million were infected with either syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia or trichomoniasis.[1] At least an additional 530 million people have genital herpes, and 290 million women have human papillomavirus.[1] STIs other than HIV resulted in 108,000 deaths in 2015.[4] In the United States, there were 19 million new cases of STIs in 2010.[9] Historical documentation of STIs dates back to at least the Ebers papyrus around 1550 BC and the Old Testament.[10] There is often shame and stigma associated with STIs.[1] The term sexually transmitted infection is generally preferred over sexually transmitted disease or venereal disease, as it includes those who do not have symptomatic disease.[11]

Who else noticed the very last part of the video got muted at 5:30 ? What was initially said at this part? I'm too curious to know why it was censored! My guess is because it was about impaired judgement/thinking

[samhuerta]

In my opinion, I think that this video is incredible since it explains sexual transmissions and all the types of precautions that must be taken to avoid sexually transmitted infections.

Can u get tested for them all with a blood test? Alsi is there a vaccine for hiv?

[karenmonson]

Being a young adult and sexually active in during the 80's this wasn't aids wasn't a problem or talked about. It was having bloodwork done for supplimental health insurance that this came to light. Without my knowledge or consent they tested my blood for aids which luckily came out negitive. This was not only my wakeup call but scared the crap out of me. I only had 2 sexual partners but both were unfaithful during my relationship with both of them. It really makes you think about all the risks and chances you take with unprotected sex. Even in a relationship it's important for women to advocate for themselves. If men aren't agreeable to condoms or getting tested for STD's before your relationship gets sexual I'd walk. Anyone in a meanful relationship will want to take the time and precautions to do the preventive measures so no one gets hurt.
